Description:
I can set maven.repo.local to a full directory path and it works fine:

maven.repo.local=D:/projects/MDSP/eclipse/sources/cs-repository

if I change it to:

maven.repo.local=${basedir}/cs-repository

it looks for the repository in my project's directory, which is expected.  however, if I put:

maven.repo.local=${basedir}/../cs-repository

it ends up creating a new repository in my home/.maven/plugins directory:

C:\Documents and Settings\mmattox\.maven\plugins

I have no idea why the ".." puts it there but it should resolve the relative directory.
